Does anybody know of anywhere in the Trowbridge/Bath area that has bike trailers for hire as I need to be able to get my bike to BMW dealer over in Bristol on trailer due to knackered clutch system on bike :( :(

Thanks for help :) :)

If I had a trailer - you could borrow it.
Someone on here must have one.
Have you thought about hiring a transit (you'll need ramps though)
You'll also need plenty of ratchet straps if you go with the van option.
Just a suggestion....

Colin,

Thanks for tip about basil, is he away at Snetterton by any chance as that is where Moo is who also has a trailer that I have borrowed in the past.

Rabb thanks for suggestions - I had thought about hiring a van if absolutely necessary but a trailer works so much better due to the weight of the GS, hopefully somebody might know of trailer

Rinksy Collection might be an option but knowing what BMW rates are like I was hoping I could deliver it myself to save some of the hard earned for the bloody repair bill which is bad to be painful knowing my luck at the moment.

If Westburys not too far I can highly recommend - http://www.hire-standards.co.uk/trailers.htm

I hired their bike trailer to collect a bike earlier this year.

Many thanks to Nikki :) :) :)

Trailer booked for tomorrow and Bristol bound I shall be. Hopefully half day hire for £16.50 +VAT which seems very reasonable to me.
